There lives in Des Moines "a
woman whose husband is cursed
with an unquenchable thirst for
tanglefoot. His Wife is an industri-
GUS woman, eking out an existence
as best she may by taking in wash
ing, ironing, etc. a short time ago
the prohibitionist inspectors paid her
a visit. "Surely, good woman" said
me of them, ''prohibition has been
beneficial to you, as it must keep
your husband away from those ac-
cursed rum-shops.' "Yes," replied
the good woman, ut has done me
good, | can now sell the bottles

ELKINS AND DORSEY.

Mr.. Julien, Surveyor General of
New Mexico, writes in the last North
american RecieW about the land
frauds perpetuated in that territory
by Stephen b. Elkins, S. W. Dorsey
and their confederates. In describ-
ing the difficulties which beset the
Government in endeavoringt to recov-
er its stolen lands Mr.. Julien says
that Dorsey. Elkins and their con-
federates have their allies in both
Houses of Congress. Distinguished
Congressman from some of the great
States of the West are under
stood to be in sympathy with them
and are restrained only by dread of
antagorizing the President in his
fight with the land thieves from
openly taking sides with them

We printed evidence of the happy
results of Local Option in Atlanta,
Ga. We will next print testimony
of the utter failure of Prohibition in
Rhode Island. Local Option means
that each community shall close its
own saloons; Prohibition means
that one county shall meddle with
the local and domestic affairs OF
another county. The voters of West
Virginia are to choose between home
rule and foreign rule. We are IN
favor of local self government.

OHIO REBELS.

The Democratic county COnven-

urday to appoint delegates to the
State Convention. TIE name of L.
S. Senator Payne was placed on the
list of delegates and met with earn
est opposition from many who OBJ
iect to the Standard Oil influence in
politics. A motion was made to have
his name stricken from the list.
Every delegate jumped to his feet
and yelled. The chairman refused
to put the motion, declaring it out
of order. In the midst of the confu-
sion motion was made to adjourn.
The chairman declared it carried.
Those opposed to Senator Payne de-
clared that they had been cut off I'M

The Hon. r. Nj. Il. HUNTER, died
ut his home in Essex Co., Va, last
Tuesday.
Mr. Hunter was native of Essex
and graduated at the University of
Virginia. He studied law with
Judge Tucker, in Winch ester, and
was admitted to the bar in 1880.
He was elected to the Legislature in
1884 and served three terms. In
1887 ne was elected to the 25th Con-
gress and although he acted with
the States Rights Wings he opposed
the L. S. Bank. Reelected to the
Goth Congress he was made speaker
after memorable contest which de-
iayed the organization of the House
for more than two weeks. He was
re elected to the 9th Congress. In
1914 he advocated the election of
Polk and was again elected TO Con-
gress. In 1916 he was made Sena-
tor. He was one Of the three strong
est candidates for President in the
Charleston convention of 1860. Dur
ing the war he was member Of the
confederate Senate and also served
for short time as Secretary Of State.
He was member of the peace com
mission that met President Lincoln
and Secretary Seward in Hampton
Roads, February 3rd, 1865. After
the war he was chosen treasurer of
Virginia.
The personal appearance of Mr..
Hunter. in 1860, was thus dcscrib-
ed:
Grave and sincere, the expression
of his countenance is peculiarly qui-
ct and subdued. His hair is jet
black, and his complexion swarthy.
His form is compact, and there is an
intimation of slowness and apathy
in his movements. If he has pas
sions, they have little effect upon his
exterior; the iron stove scarcely
glows with the intensity of internal
fire. He impresses every one with
a belief that he is honest and sim
cere.
If the present generation had sense
enough to bring into the public SER

REGER AGAIN.

Do not badger Camden:-he has
paid enough blackmail to newspa-
pers and to bummers.
The Mtelligencer copies from the
n. Y. World two columns of what
purports to be a letter from Parkers-
burg alleging that ex-senator Cam
den supplied Roger with money "to
keep out of the way of the Kanawha
county grand jury"
Despite the suppression of the
Minear bribery, enough has come to
light to convince every thoughtful
citizen that we have in the public
servicevery untrustworthy men. The
remedy is, to send to Washington a
higher grade of politicians. So long
as the people tolerate the rule of the
class who now assume to manage
the Democratic party there will be
no improvement. A rotten egg can
not purify itself and rotten egg
will not produce healthy chicken.
The party, as party, must insist
upon the selection of better men; we
need in front, men who are trusted
and respected; we are lost, If we
follow men who have no credentials
except the endorsement of venal and
ignorant newspapers. Experience
proves that the Press is not on the
side of the people but on the side OF
those who pay out money. The
amazing feature of the situation is
that the men who are least worthy
and least trusted by the rank and file,
now insist that the most worthy and
most trusted members of the party
shall be ostracised and excluded
Kidd will drive out Chew, McGraw
will drive out John j. Davis, fancy
will drive out Mason, Holmes will
drive out Colston, Kenna will drive
out Wilson-any so we could go
over the entire State. This would
be a beautiful procession, and when
it marches the State goes Republi-
can by 10000.

Special to the Register.

PARKERsBURG, April 17.-Senator
Camdens speech on the Cullom Bill
was received here with great enthu-
siasm and warm enconiums by all
parties. IL occupies conversation
on the streets to the exclusion of
every other subject. His position,
in view of the fact that he is prom
inent railroad stakeholder, and his
honest, frank and telling arguments
against discrimination have made
him many warm friends. The par
ty are jubilant on the Senator
grand "coup de main"
When it was proposed in the last
Legislature to give our home traffic
the benefit of this bill, the very men
who were most active for Camden
were the very ones most earnest
against the measure. Camden and
Kenna were both in Charleston and
neither of them took the side of the
people. The railroad lobby sur
rounded the Legislature the rail
road lawyers argued against it day
after day, and Col. Chew stood
almost alone on the democratic side
of the House to speak for the just
rights of our people. If Camden
and Kenna were at heart in favor OF
the principles of the Interstate Com
merce Bill, would they have kept 81
lent when so favorable an opportu-
nifty was offered to secure relief to
the people of this State? Gov. Viii
son is at heart in favor of preventing
railroad discrimination, and he APP
peared before the committee to adj
vocate the measure. "By their
fruit We shall know them" The
bill offered in our Legislature sim
yly applied the law of Congress
to home traffic and Chew's speech in
favor of it was simply the same
honest, frank and telling argu
ments against discrimination" that
the Register said made Camden
"many warm friends in Parkers-
burg" Why was it then, that Mr..
Chancellor opposed this bill? He
represented Parkersbnrg and was
Camden's most active supporter
Why was it Mr.. Leonard opposed
the bill ? He is chairman Of the
State Executive Committee, he is the
attorney for the Ohio River Railroad
and he managed Mr.. Camden's can
vass. Why was it, that every rail
road in the State had its lobby in
Charleston to- prevent legislation
which "one of the most substantial
and intelligent farmers in the South
Branch Valley" declared "the peo-
pie were so unanimous for that he
knew of none opposed to it except
those intesested in special rates or
railroads 2" Why is it that GER
tain clique of West Virginia politi
clans, their henchmen and newspa-
pers are so hostile to the very men
who have proven themselves truest
to the people on this question +? Is
the next Democratic convention to
be managed by the railroad lobby ?
If so, tell us where will our party be
if the Republicans have sense
enough to nominate Mclean or Daw-
sor, or some man who can be trusted
not TO play the stool pigeon for rail
road managers /? Does any one
doubt that the Chew bill will carry
at the polls by 100 to l ? If we
nominate for Governor man who
voted with the railroad lobby and
who voted directly against the plain
interests of the people of this State.
can we elect him ?

manner. He would, however, give
the Commissioners the names OF
some of the persons from whom they
might be able to extract the desired
information.
If the people of West Virginia
will send a few men like John j.
Davis, Brannan and French of Mer-
Ger, to the Legislature, we will find
out how the Chew bill was defeated.
Let the people remember, the chief
aim of the railroads is to exclude
such men from the Legislature.

are not yet distributed. This is a
gross outrage. The public printer,
or whoever is to blame, should be

paid to do the work fail to do it,
turn them out and give the place to
those who will.
Wheeling was visited by terrible
storm last Tuesday night; the light
ming was unusually severe and the
wind blew down many shade trees.
The storm extended over consid-
cradle extent of country. At Graf
ton the lightning was the worst ever
known. Among other casualties, the
house of Mrs. Carr was struck and 4
bed set on fire. Mrs. Carr was killed
instantly and her three children
